Ian is torn, should he exercise more or should he just lie down and go to sleep? It’s a toughie. Apparently sleep has incredible health benefits, but it seems counterintuitive to sleep your way through a long life. Ian goes on an adventure to assess his own fitness through a bleep test, before quickly pivoting to sleep.
